"The quality of this top amazed me. The material is heavy, comfortable, thick and beautiful. It's a well made and designed top. It can be worn in some many different settings and styled in various ways! The buttons are a nice added detail. I love how it looks on me. I bought a size L, but could have also gone for a size M. It's however true to size and comfortable fit. I love it!"

"Very nice sweater. Buttons as detail. Great fabric."
— Luisa S. (5/5)
"Très agréable à porter, la matière est douce et pas trop chaude. Parfait avec un slim noir !"
— Adélaïde G. (5/5)
"Largo tal cual las imágenes. Queda por encima de la cintura. Es adecuado para llevar con pantalones o falda de cintura alta. Material agradable pero quizá un poco picoso al tacto. Lo recomiendo con una blusa debajo. Los tirantes no son ajustables así que, si tienes poco pecho, tendrás que cortarles para que quede como a la modelo. Los botones son perfectos pero si quieres que se vea más la estrella โญ, recomiendo ponerle hilo rojo o brillante ๐ Las mangas tienen el largo perfecto."

"This is synthetic material. Makes me itchy. Terrible material, but looks nice on. Will wear it in Winter with a top underneath."
— Dana E. (3/5)
"Fits really nicely! Incredibly flattering. I also love the lil pentagram stitch on the buttons."
— Domante D. (5/5)
"Amazinggg top! So cute and comfy. Obsessed with the neckline and cold shoulder design and the sleeves are a cute shape too. Super versatile but great for alternative casual looks <3"
— Jaydn H. (5/5)
"This is my new favourite! I feel sexy with the off the shoulder vibe! It's soft, not itchy and fits well. I'm a size 16 and went for an XL. I tuck it into my skirts but looks good with some flares too. Definitely recommend! The buttons are so cute, I didn't realise they had pentagrams on them. The length fits well, not too short, not too long! I would buy this again!"
— Taylor-Jayne T. (5/5)
"Fits good and true to size. Really like the design and how it looks! Not itchy at all and comfortable to wear."
— Gemma B. (4/5)
